For lawncare! The rain let up and we FINALLY had a chance to work on our yard. It was truly beginning to look like a jungle out there. After Buppy found a tick on Aidan's shirt, we realized it was time to kick it into high gear. We picked up an unfathomable amount of branches (hazard of living out in the woods), raked up sopping wet leaves, and Kurt mowed the lawn. Most of this was done during naptimes, but Daddy finished the mowing up Sunday morning and the kids were enthralled once they realized they could watch him from Maddie's crib. They spent a half hour or more watching him from the window. They would whine and cry each time he went into the woods to unload the grass cuttings. Nothing could stop the whining until Daddy came back into view. Can you tell they love their Daddy???
Here's a close up of Daddy in action with his super cool Michael Jacksonish lawn mowing boots!
And Mother's Day was splendid! We were able to spend time with both Mimi & Grandma and I received a very special present from Maddie & Aidan. It was a Vermont Teddy bear dressed up to be a stay at home Mom. It came with lots of "spa" accessories such as bubble bath and various lotions. Here's Maddie giving some love to the Mommy bear!
And Aidan's turn (for Aidan, love often means a good poke in the eye)!
Thanks to all those who made it such a Happy Mother's Day weekend!
